Concerning the Spiritual-and the Concrete-in Kandinsky's Art - Florman, Lisa

A radical reassessment of the art and writings of Wassily Kandinsky, this book contests the traditional understanding that he was motivated by mystical concerns and sees his work instead as an extended philosophical "conversation" on the nature of art with German philosopher Hegel, and the Kandinsky's own nephew, philosopher and Hegel scholar, Alexandre Kojeve.
